Occupational Therapy

Educational Programs >> KDS >> Occupational Therapy

The profession of occupational therapy is concerned with a person’s ability to participate in daily life activities or “occupations.” At the Kennedy Day School, our OTs use their unique expertise to help children maximize their potential as students and contributing members of the school community.

We work as members of the educational team to foster independence and support a variety of child-centered outcomes including self-help skills, functional motor skills, writing or typing, prevocational/vocational participation, environmental exploration, technology access and more.
